Very light revision of the 3 PM exam followed by a few hours of something that does not involve high levels of cognitive stimulation e.g. exercise, watching cartoons, or discussing politics. You don't want to fatigue your brain before an exam and accumulate cerebral metabolic wastes~

Yeah I have no idea what UoM is doing with those giant steel containers bahahaha. Classy. Stuff winds up missing from there quite often, and there are no designated entrances or exits. I WANT TO BE A TICKET LADY. I want to give everyone tickets in exchange for their bags, and their bags in exchange for their tickets. Best exam period ever, being the sparkly ticket lady.

I always thought he needed a bit more sparkle.

Maybe just look at the lectures you haven't grasped as well, but only for an hour or so. Also have lunch!

dfiagadadkad uni exams start tomorrow and I got two :(

I've checked extensively and I can't find information regarding watches in the exam room. I have a simple analogue watch so I'm assuming this is OK to bring in? Do I need to place it on the table?

Yayyyy! That's great news!! We had the best group and probably put in way too much effort haha :) Good to know it paid off!!

Invigilators don't care about watches in uni exams (unlike VCE exams), having the watch on your wrist is fine!
The things they do care about though:

*No notes in your pockets
*Phone under your seat, turned off and probably having the screen faced down
* Water bottle on the ground, clear water bottle.
* No pencil cases, only zip lock clear bags for your pens/pencils
* Calculators if they aren't allowed
* Not allowed to use wite-out in your exams

If you follow those things then you're good!

If I'm walking from Parliament station there's a path to get from the east side of the REB to the west side right? (My exam is on the west side.)

Also, I don't really want to bring a backpack tomorrow but I don't really want to be holding onto my zip-lock bag on the train either... do you think there would be a problem if I brought a plastic shopping bag with me while I'm on the train and fold it under my desk when I get there?

We make a good team, I wish I could bring you into my exams with me El2012.

Also, I don't really want to bring a backpack tomorrow but I don't really want to be holding onto my zip-lock bag on the train either... do you think there would be a problem if I brought a plastic shopping bag with me while I'm on the train and fold it under my desk when I get there?

The Royal Exhibition Building West, otherwise known as Rathdowne, is entered through the same doors as Royal Exhibition Building East. You turn left instead of right though when entering through the same doors.

And they won't mind as long as the bag is completely transparent.

Thanks.

I actually meant having a zip-lock bag but having a plastic shopping bag to put it in while I'm on the train... I'd have the zip-lock bag on the table but do you think they'd mind if I folded up the plastic shopping bag and put that on the floor? (lol I sound so stupid XD)

You cant bring any bags into the REB, except a clear gladwrap bag to hold your pencils, or something like that.

Ah alright then, it looks like I'll just be taking my zip-lock bag on the train then (or I could throw out the plastic bag before I arrive). XD

I know; the plastic bag would have to be transparent. That's what I use.
